After she said this, everyone focused on the inconspicuous Chinese character longevity. Sure enough, as Chen said, the entire Chinese character longevity is composed of many small characters for longevity, and each character is different.
, even the concubines who had read poetry and books since childhood could not recognize them, let alone write them.
"Ever since I learned about the Queen Mother's sixtieth birthday, I have always wanted to write a birthday calligraphy with my own hands to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday. Unfortunately, I was born in a poor family and can barely read. I can't say that I am good at calligraphy. In a short time,
I couldn’t practice it well either, so I looked through ancient books and found these ninety-nine different characters for longevity, and combined them into one character for longevity. There were a hundred characters in total. I tried my best to practice the characters well, but I still couldn’t do it.
Sisters, I hope the Queen Mother will not give up."
Hongli also said from the side: "Yes, Queen Mother, Wei Changzai often practices until late at night in order to write this longevity character for you with his own hands."
Ling Ruo took a look at the hundred-year-old picture and said: "Wei Chang is about to give birth, but he is so determined to prepare birthday gifts for the Ai family. How can the Ai family dislike it? Come and sit down."
When Wei Jingxuan thanked her and took her seat, Huang, who was sitting next to Ling Ruo, said softly: "This Wei Jingxuan, in order to please the emperor's mother, spent a lot of effort. It's a shame that she came up with the picture of a hundred years of life. It's a pity that the emperor's mother didn't
I was so grateful that I didn’t even smile."
"She is good at welcoming the emperor, so naturally she will not miss this opportunity. Besides, the person she wants to please is not the emperor. If you look carefully at this picture of a hundred years of life, each point of the character longevity is heavy at the top and light at the bottom, like
Doesn’t it look like the emperor’s writing style?”
Huang took a closer look and found that it was exactly what Xianyue said. She frowned tightly and said, "Is it possible...the emperor taught her to write these characters for longevity?"
"It's possible." Facing Xiayue's answer, Huang said angrily: "This Wei Jingxuan is really annoying just looking at her."
Xianyue said nothing, but looked sideways at Wei Jingxuan, who was accompanying her at the end of the seat. The latter sensed her gaze and turned to smile at Xianyue, as if she had no grudges.
After Wei Jingxuan and Chang were there, it was Yongzhang and several other grandchildren who wished him a birthday. Seeing them, Ling Ruo smiled obviously a little more, especially after seeing his eleventh brother who had just turned two full moon, he held him in his arms and teased them.
, then said: "Did the emperor give me a name?"
Hongli bowed slightly and said, "When I returned to the emperor, I still didn't give her a name."
Xianyue's eyes flashed, and she stood up and said, "Mother of the Emperor, I would like to take advantage of today's great joy to ask for a favor from you. Is it okay?"
Ling Ruo smiled half-heartedly and said, "Please, my family? What kind of favor does the imperial concubine want?"
Before Xianyue could speak, Hongli already said: "Huang'e Niang, my son guessed that the imperial concubine wanted to ask Huang'e Niang to name the eleventh elder brother."
Ling Ruo raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "Oh, is that really the case?"
Xianyue glanced at Hongli with a smile, and then said: "That's exactly what I mean when I talk about Huang's mother-in-law. I wonder if Huang's mother is willing to let the eleventh brother get a piece of your blessing."
Xia Qing was very smart and immediately stood up and said: "I beg the Queen Mother to take pity on Brother Eleven and give him a name."
Ling Ruo chuckled and said, "Looking at how you all look like, are you going to force the Ai family to give you a name?" After a moment of pause, she looked at the grinning child in her arms and said, "Forget it, the Ai family will do it for you.
You should choose a name so that you don’t always refer to it by rank. This generation’s rank is Yong, and the courtesy name is Congyu, so why not call it Yongxuan.”
Hearing this, Xia Qing quickly said gratefully: "I would like to thank the Queen Mother for the name."
Xianyue said from the side: "If the Queen Mother personally bestows the name, I believe that Yongxuan will have endless blessings and a safe and healthy life in the future."
"Safety and health..." Ling Ruo chewed on these four words and nodded: "This is indeed the most important thing."
Yehenala looked at this scene with cold eyes, almost going crazy with jealousy. Her child was born in the 11th year of Qianlong's reign. He was already over one year old and had no name yet. Xia Qing's child was only two months old.
, he has a name, but it was given by Ling Ruo, which is really annoying.
However, at this time, no matter how angry she was, she did not dare to show it and could only vent her anger secretly.
After them, the wives who were ordered by the court and the princes and ministers also entered the palace to wish Ling Ruo a birthday. Yunli, Hong Zhou and Fu Heng all entered the palace and then went to Changyin Pavilion to watch the play.
Changyin Pavilion has been singing opera every day since ten days ago to congratulate Ling Ruo on her birthday. Today is the most crucial. The song is "Birthday Blessings of Immortals". The "immortals" on the stage are holding Ganoderma lucidum in their hands, wishing them good luck and guiding them.
The boy held a huge longevity peach in his hand to wish Ling Ruo birthday.
While watching the play, Xiangju brought a bowl of medicine to Wei Jingxuan. She looked very uncomfortable. When she was about to give the medicine to Wei Jingxuan, she blurted out: "Master, do you really want to drink it? Yes."
Isn't there any danger?" She was nervous for a moment and forgot to lower her voice.
Wei Jingxuan was extremely unhappy and glanced around. Fortunately, Zhang Guiren and the others were focused on the excitement on the stage and did not notice Xiang Ju's words, otherwise they would have been in trouble. She glared at Xiang Ju and whispered: "You are
Do you want to make this known to everyone?"
Xiangju also realized the problem and said in a panic: "I don't dare, I'm just worried that... if I drink this, my master will be in danger."
"Didn't you ask Dr. Zhuang and the doctors outside the palace?" Faced with Wei Jingxuan's words, Xiangju lowered her voice and said, "I have asked several doctors, and they all said that taking this medicine at full term will only promote the birth of the fetus.
It won't cause any harm, but it is an external intervention after all. In fact, master, wouldn't it be better for you to wait for the little brother to be born on his own?"
Wei Jingxuan smiled coolly and said: "Today is the birthday of the Queen Mother. How could we miss such a good day? This child has been silent for so long. I thought I was waiting for today." After that, she raised her hand and said: "Give it to me.
Bar."
Seeing that she had made up her mind, Xiangju did not dare to say anything and handed the medicine bowl to Wei Jingxuan. The latter glanced at the yellow-brown medicine sweat and said, "It's so bitter. Go get some candied fruits."
Just as Xiangju was about to go down, Ning Guiren, who was sitting on the right side of Wei Jingxuan, suddenly sniffed and said, "What kind of tea is this? Why does it smell weird?"
Xiangju panicked and almost dropped the tea cup in her hand. She stood there uneasily. Wei Jingxuan was much calmer and said: "To my sister, this is not tea, but the anti-fetal medicine that I usually take. Xiangju
When I saw Chen Concubine taking the medicine, I brought it to my concubine to take. Unexpectedly, I took it to Sister Ping, which is really my concubine's fault."
Ning Guiren raised his eyes and said, "It turns out to be an anti-fetal medicine. No wonder it smells like medicine."
Wei Jingxuan said flatteringly: "Sister, would you like some candied fruit? I would like to ask Xiangju to bring some more?"
Ning Guiren thought for a while and said: "That's fine, thank you very much Wei Chang for being here."
